The statement of results needs to be clear. There are no results, there might be results given more research. It's not knowably applicable as yet. You may try it at home, but you may whistle to the wind as well.

My usage of "technique" was appropriate, e.g. surgery is also very much patient-dependent; you cut out a cancer from wherever it is in a particular patient, not only in rigid pre-specified places.

Since I made my meaning clear in the context, and you understood it, debating it was useless.
